We interrupt our regular scheduled programming to bring you important news regarding the new flu virus that terrorizes Mexico City.
A deadly and brand-new menace has arrived to Mexico City. Its 10 ^ 11 times smaller than Godzilla but still, creates fear, confusion, paranoia, and a death toll that could rise to 68 fatalities. Ladies and gentleman, our city is probably the ground zero of a worrisome new swine flu strain which combines genetic material from pigs, birds and humans.
Schools, museums and public libraries were closed on Friday. Public events were canceled by city mayor Marcelo Ebrard from now to 10 days and people in the streets, bars, public transportation, restaurants and almost everywhere are wearing surgical masks.
The victims, surprisingly, are not the weary elderly nor the powerless childhood but the always spry and handsome young-adulthood.
Until now, no vaccine specifically protects against this new threat, so even if you had your influenza shot the last winter, it’s OK to start feeling an uncontrollable fear and anxiety.
In the meanwhile, wash your hands as often as possible, avoid hospitals unless of a medical emergency (but pay a visit immediately at the first flu symptoms), hold back from kissing girls or even shaking hands with strangers and avoid any kind of crowded places.
Good luck!
